Now that Brad Pitt has finalized the custody issues with Angelina Jolie (for now), he can focus on what’s really important. No not his acting in Quentin Tarantino’sManson murder movie. He can focus on his next real life drama: getting sued by the good people of New Orleans for those shitty houses he built them.
